Text Quotes
Which idiot put the GOP convention the same time as ‘Burning Man’ in Nevada? Is there time to change this?  (Grover Norquist Quotes) Less government, less regulation, lower taxes  (Grover Norquist Quotes) I’m for tax reform, not tax increases  (Grover Norquist Quotes) Bipartisanship is another name for date rape  (Grover Norquist Quotes) Clinton and Obama practice this politics known quaintly as the Richard Speck strategy: if you cannot take on everyone in the room at once, take them out of the room one at a time  (Grover Norquist Quotes) My goal is to cut government in half in twenty-five years, to get it down to the size where we can drown it in the bathtub  (Grover Norquist Quotes) The tax issue is the most powerful issue in American politics going back to the Tea Party. People say, ‘Oh, Grover Norquist has power.’ No. Grover Norquist and Americans for Tax Reform focus on the tax issue. The tax issue is a powerful issue  (Grover Norquist Quotes) Every time you cut programs, you take away a person who has a vested interest in high taxes and you put him on the tax rolls and make him a taxpayer. A farmer on subsidies is part welfare bum, whereas a free-market farmer is a small businessman with a gun  (Grover Norquist Quotes) We want to reduce the size of government in half as a percentage of GNP over the next 25 years. We want to reduce the number of people depending on government so there is more autonomy and more free citizens  (Grover Norquist Quotes) If the Republican Party works with the Hispanic community, the immigrant community, they’re natural allies. People who came to this country are more freedom-loving and more American than people who just happened to be born here  (Grover Norquist Quotes) I think it’s very important to always make sure that you’re talking to the entire coalition and to as many Americans as possible; not to go chasing after one little group or another. The Democrats would bring new groups into their party and not notice that larger groups are going out the back door  (Grover Norquist Quotes) Obama has been perhaps the most partisan President since Truman. He hasn’t learned to be civil - note his insulting speech to Paul Ryan, who did us the courtesy of scoring a budget. The president has to talk to Republicans when it comes to the debt ceiling. He has reached the debt ceiling before anyone expected  (Grover Norquist Quotes) The question is: How do we reduce spending from 25% of GDP, which is where Obama put us? The focus is on total government spending. Can we bring it down, in a reasonable and politically acceptable way? That’s what the Paul Ryan plan does. It puts us on a gradual reform path to reducing the size of government  (Grover Norquist Quotes) Twenty-five years ago, I created the Taxpayer Protection Pledge at the federal level. Then I brought it to the state and local level. About 97 percent of the Republicans in the House and 85 percent in the Senate have signed on, and the number of candidates who have taken the pledge is even higher. It’s become a party position  (Grover Norquist Quotes) We plan to pick up another five seats in the Senate and hold the House through redistricting through 2012. And rather than negotiate with the teachers’ unions and the trial lawyers and the various leftist interest groups, we intend to break them  (Grover Norquist Quotes) I know the activists I deal with, we sort of try and check each other to make sure that we haven’t gone native, that you come to Washington thinking it’s a cesspool, you don’t want to end up thinking it’s really a hot tub and getting used to it. So that’s something one has to keep an eye on all the time  (Grover Norquist Quotes) The RNC has made a concerted effort to work with their allies with a real focus on what we can do to equip candidates with the resources to win in 2014 and beyond. There isn’t a week that goes by that I don’t see someone from the RNC at our weekly coalition meeting. Keep up the good work  (Grover Norquist Quotes) I want to reduce the size of government in half as a percentage of GNP [gross national product] over the next 25 years. We want to reduce the number of people depending on government so there is more autonomy and more free citizens  (Grover Norquist Quotes) Obsessions turn people off  (Grover Norquist Quotes) The statists want to control the economy  (Grover Norquist Quotes) When I became 21, I decided that nobody learned anything about politics after the age of 21  (Grover Norquist Quotes) Our goal is to shrink government to the size where we can drown it in a bathtub  (Grover Norquist Quotes) I read murder mysteries. I exercise 40 minutes a day. I watch videotapes while I exercise. I listen to audiotapes when I am in my car. And I try to stay in three different centuries  (Grover Norquist Quotes) I don’t want to abolish government. I simply want to reduce it to the size where I can drag it into the bathroom and drown it in the bathtub  (Grover Norquist Quotes) This always confuses liberals, that conservatives like the military and don’t like the bureaucracy. That’s because the military has their guns pointed out and the bureaucracy has them pointed in  (Grover Norquist Quotes) They tax when you earn a dollar, they tax you when you save it, they tax you when you invest it. If you earn a dividend, they tax it again, and if you’re stupid enough to die, they steal up to half  (Grover Norquist Quotes) The goal is to reduce the size and scope of government spending, not to focus on the deficit. The deficit is the symptom of the disease  (Grover Norquist Quotes) Democrats are people who raise your taxes and spend your money on weird stuff. They steal your guns, and they spit on your faith  (Grover Norquist Quotes) We don’t need someone who can think. We need someone with enough digits to hold a pen  (Grover Norquist Quotes) Our goal is to inflict pain. It is not good enough to win; it has to be a painful and devastating defeat. We’re sending a message here. It is like when the king would take his opponent’s head and spike it on a pole for everyone to see  (Grover Norquist Quotes)
